Someone also mentioned in this news group that Ada programmers 
get paid less than the rest. This is another proof of the fact.  
I also found the same thing, that Ada jobs pay less.

Any one knows why Ada positions pay less than the rest? It must be becuase
goverment related jobs (where Ada is used) pay less than commerical ones, any
other reasons? How to improve this situation?

Steve.
